DokuDachs is a GDPR-compliant AI tool that records therapy sessions, transcribes them in real time, and generates structured summaries with clickable source citations.
What is DokuDachs?
DokuDachs is a web-based application for psychotherapists that takes audio recordings of therapy sessions as input and outputs a live transcript with automatic speaker recognition, followed by an AI-generated structured summary with numbered citations linking back to the transcript. It is developed by a team that understands the daily workflow of therapists, as stated on the website: "Entwickelt aus der täglichen Praxis mit Psychotherapeut:innen."
Key Features
- Automatic speaker recognition – Distinguishes between therapist and patient (and multiple group participants) in the transcript; speakers can be corrected afterward.
- Offline mode – If the internet drops during recording, the app switches to local browser storage and resumes upload when reconnected.
- Dictation mode – Records personal notes without speaker separation, optimized for dictation.
- Online meeting mode – Captures both microphone and system audio during video sessions, enabling transcription of telehealth appointments.
- Source citations – Each claim in the summary includes a clickable number like
[1]that jumps to the exact transcript segment. - Session templates – Choose from predefined templates (first session, progress, crisis intervention) or create custom ones to control summary structure.
- Patient files – Manage demographics, anamnesis, therapy goals, session history, and test diagnostics (including PsyDix import) in one place.
- Versioned summaries – All summary revisions are saved and accessible for review.
Who is it for?
- Individual psychotherapists in private practice who want to cut documentation time by up to 80% while maintaining detailed, traceable session records.
- Group practices that need centralized patient files, shared team accounts, and reduced licensing costs.
- Therapists conducting online sessions who need a reliable way to capture and transcribe the entire audio from video calls.
- Clinicians running group therapy who must document multiple participants and assign speaker turns.
What can you do with DokuDachs?
- Record and summarize single sessions – Start a recording with one click, get a live transcript with speaker labels, and receive a structured summary with source references.
- Document group therapy – Select the group mode, assign detected speakers to participants, and generate a summary that covers all group interactions.
- Dictate personal notes – Use dictation mode to record your own observations or thoughts without speaker detection.
- Import existing notes – Paste text or upload PDF, Word, or image files; DokuDachs extracts the text and creates a summary.
How does it work?

Transcription – DokuDachs transcribes the conversation in real time with speaker labels. 3. AI summary – After the session, the AI analyzes the transcript and produces a structured summary with citations. 4. Edit and save – Adjust the summary if needed, then store it encrypted in your patient file.

FAQ
Can I use DokuDachs without an internet connection?
Recording requires an internet connection for transcription, but if the connection drops, the app automatically switches to an offline mode that saves the audio locally in the browser until the connection is restored.

Yes, DokuDachs supports transcription in approximately 60 languages. The final summary is always generated in German.
How does DokuDachs protect patient data?
All data is encrypted and stored on European servers. Audio files are processed transiently and never stored permanently. The service uses a zero-knowledge architecture: your password acts as the encryption key, and the company cannot access your transcripts.
Can I correct the speaker labels in the transcript?
Yes, in both individual and group sessions you can reassign speaker labels after recording.
Is there a limit on the number of sessions I can document?
No, all paid plans offer unlimited session recordings and summaries.
